The painting depicts a street scene. A large gray building with a reddish-brown roof and white cupola stands on the right side. A horse-drawn carriage with a black canopy and reddish-brown body and wheels is on the road in the foreground. Two people stand on a sidewalk on the left side. A man wears a blue coat and hat and holds a white object. A woman wears a long blue dress and white headscarf. A tall tree stands on either side of the road. Other buildings line the street in the background. The sky is blue, orange, and pink.
